< Nehemiah 8 >

1 And the seventh month had arrived. Now the sons of Israel were in their cities. And all the people were gathered together, like one man, in the street which is before the water gate. And they spoke to Ezra the scribe, so that he would bring the book of the law of Moses, which the Lord had instructed to Israel.
Hanki Tima Afi Kafanema nehaza kafamofo avugama me'nea kankamumpi ana maka Israeli vahe'mo'za eri mago zamavugosa hu'za eme atru hu'naze. Anama hute'za avoma kre eri'zama e'neria ne' Ezrana asami'za, Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahe'ma zamasamio huno, Mosesema huntegeno krente'nea avontafera erinka eno hu'za hu'naze.
2 Therefore, Ezra the priest brought the law before the multitude of men and women, and all those who were able to understand, on the first day of the seventh month.
Anage hazageno 7ni ikamofo ese knazupa, pristi ne' Ezra'a ana kasege avontafera erino, venenene a'nene kema antahini'ma huga mofavreramima mani'naza zamavuga e'ne.
3 And he read it openly in the street which was before the water gate, from morning even until midday, in the sight of the men and women, and those who understood. And the ears of all the people were attentive to the book.
Anante Ezra'a ana avontafera erino nanterampi tima nefiza kafamofo avugama me'nea kumapi, ana maka Israeli vahe zamavuga oti'neno, ana kasege avontafepinti nehamparige'za vene'nene a'nanene, kema antahi ani'ma huga mofavreramimo'za nentahizage'za, ana maka vahe'mo'zanena zamagesa ante so'e hu'neza nentahizageno vuno feruse'ne.
4 Then Ezra the scribe stood upon a step of wood, which he had made for speaking. And standing beside him were Mattithiah, and Shemaiah, and Anaiah, and Uriah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right. And on the left were Pedaiah, Mishael, and Malchijah, and Hashum, and Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
Hanki Ezra'a manisga hu'neno keagama hu tra'ma tro hunte'naza trate mani'nege'za azantmaga kaziga, Matitia'ma, Sema'ma, Anaia'ma, Uria'ma, Hilkia'ene Ma'aseiaki hu'za oti'naze. Ana hazageno hoga kaziga'a Pedaia'ma Misaeli'ma Malkija'ma Hasumi'ma Hasbadana'ma Zekaraia'ene Mesulamuki hu'za oti'naze.
5 And Ezra opened the book before all the people. For he stood out above all the people. And when he had opened it, all the people stood up.
Hagi anante Ezra'a kasegema hamprinaku manisga hu trate mani'nege'za ana maka vahe'mo'za negageno, ana avontafe'ma erivakama rege'za, ana maka vahe'mo'za oti vagare'naze.
6 And Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God. And all the people responded, “Amen, Amen,” lifting up their hands. And they bowed down, and they adored God, facing the ground.
Ana hazageno Ezra'a Ra Anumzana tusi'a Anumzamofona agi'a ahentesga hu'ne. Ana hige'za ve'a kevumo'za zamazana erisga huvagare'za, Tamage, Tamage nehu'za, zamarena re'za mopafi zamavugosaregati kepri hu'za Ra Anumzamofona monora hunte'naze.
7 Then Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, the Levites, caused the people to be silent in order to hear the law. And the people were standing on their feet.
Anante anama hutazage'za, Livae nagara Jesua'ma Bani'ma Serebia'ma Jamini'ma Akubu'ma Sabetaia'ma Hodia'ma Ma'aseia'ma Kelita'ma Azaria'ma Josabati'ma Hanani'ene Pelaia'ma hu'za, oti'naza vahera kasegea eriama hu'za zamasami'naze.
8 And they read from the book of the law of God, distinctly and plainly, so as to be understood. And when it was read, they did understand.
Zamagra Anumzamofo kasege avontafepinti hamparite'za, agu'gesa'a eriama hu'za vahe'mo'zama antahi ani'ma hu'are zamasamizage'za antahi ama' hu'naze.
9 Then Nehemiah (the same is the cupbearer) and Ezra, the priest and scribe, and the Levites, who were interpreting for all the people, said: “This day has been sanctified to the Lord our God. Do not mourn, and do not weep.” For all of the people were weeping, as they were listening to the words of the law.
Hagi anante Juda mopare gavana ne' Nehemaiaki, Pristi eri'zama enerino avontafe'ma negrea ne' Ezra'ene Livae naga'ma vahe'ma rempima hunezamiza naga'mo'zanena amanage hu'za maka vahera zamasami'naze, Menina amagnamo'a tamagri Anumzamofo avurera ruotge hu'neanki tamasunkura huge, zavirategera osiho. Na'ankure zamagrama ana kasegema nentahi'za maka vahe'mo'za zavi krafage nehazage'za anankea hu'naze.
10 And he said to them: “Go, eat fat foods and drink sweet drinks, and send portions to those who have not prepared for themselves. For it is the holy day of the Lord. And do not be sad. For the joy of the Lord is also our strength.”
Anante Nehemaia'a anage huno zamasami'ne, Vutma knare'nare ne'zane haganentake tinena ome neneta, musenkase nehuta ne'zama trotra'ma huonte'nesaza vahera mago'a zamigahaze. Amagnamo'a tagri Ra Anumzamofo avurera ruotage hu'neanki, tamasunkura osutma muse hiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'ma neramia musezamo'a tamagri hankave me'ne.
11 Then the Levites caused the people to be silent, saying: “Be quiet. For the day is holy. And do not be sorrowful.”
Hanki Livae naga'mo'za vahe'ma zamazeri fru hu kea amanage hu'naze, Akoheta maniho, na'ankure amagnamo'a ruotge hu'nea kna me'ne. E'ina hu'negu tamasunkura osiho.
12 And so all the people went forth, so that they might eat and drink, and so that they might send portions, and so that they might make a great rejoicing. For they understood the words that he had taught to them.
Hanki maka veamo'za no zamirega vu'za e'za hu'za, ne'zane tinena ome nene'za, ne'zankuma atupa'ma hu'naza vahera ne'zana nezami'za tusi musenkase hu'naze. Na'ankure kasegema hampari zamiza kemofo agafa'a antahi ama hu'nazagu anara hu'naze.
13 And on the second day, the leaders of the families of all the people, the priests, and the Levites were gathered together to Ezra the scribe, so that he might interpret for them the words of the law.
Hanki 7ni ikamofona nampa2 knazupa, ana maka naga nofite'ma ugagotama huterema hu'naza vahe'ene pristi vahe'mo'zane Livae naga'moza, kasegefima me'nea naneke rempi huzami'niegu avontafe'ma negrea ne' Ezrante e'za emeritru hu'naze.
14 And they found written in the law, which the Lord had instructed by the hand of Moses, that the sons of Israel should live in tabernacles on the day of solemnity in the seventh month,
Ana hute'za Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema ami'nea Kasege avontafepina amanahu ke me'nege'za ke'za erifore hu'naze. Israeli vahe'mota 7ni ikampima musenkasema hu knarera fugagi nompi mani'neta ne'zana kreta neneta musena hugahaze huno hu'nea naneke me'nege'za ke'naze.
15 and that they should proclaim and send out a voice in all their cities and in Jerusalem, saying: “Go forth to the mount, and bring olive branches, and the branches of beautiful trees, myrtle branches, and palm branches, and the branches of thick trees,” so that they might make tabernacles, just as it was written.
Ana hu'negu ne'onse kumatmimpine Jerusalemi kumapinema mani'naza vahetega amanage huta kea atre zamanteho, avontafepina amanage huno krente'ne, agonarega zafa tanopafi mareritma ani'namoke'ma hu'nenia olivi azankuna'ene, afi olivi zafa azankuna'ene tofe ani'nane Maitilesi zafa (myrtle) azankuna'ene mago'a ani'nage'ma hu'nea zafa azankuna'enena erita eta fugagi nona eme kineta kasegemo'ma hu'nea kante anteta ne'zana kreta neneta, musena hugahaze huno krentene.
16 And the people went forth and brought. And they made for themselves tabernacles, each one at his own dwelling, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim.
Ana hu'negu veamo'za vu'za zafa azankuna'a ome eri'za e'za nozamimofo agofetu'ene kumapinena fugagi nona eme negi'za, Anumzamofo mono no kumapine, Tima afi Kafanema nehaza kafamofo avugane, Efraemi kafanema nehaza kafamofo avuga fugagi nontamina ki'naze.
17 Therefore, the entire assembly of those who had returned from the captivity made tabernacles and lived in tabernacles. For from the days of Jeshua, the son of Nun, even to that day, the sons of Israel had not done so. And there was exceedingly great rejoicing.
Hanki ana maka vahe'ma Babiloni kinafinti'ma atre'za e'naza fugagi no ki'za mani'naze. Hagi Nuni nemofo Josua knareti'ma eno ana knare'ma ege'za, e'inahu zana hu'za musenkasea osu'nazanki'za, tusi musenkase hu'naze.
18 Now he read in the book of the law of God, throughout each day, from the first day even to the very last day. And they kept the solemnity for seven days. And on the eighth day, there was a gathering according to the ritual.
Ana nehu'za mago mago zupa Anumzamofo nanekea mago'ane Ezra'a hamprige'za antahi'naze. Nentahi'za seveni zagekna zupa mani'ne'za muse hu'naze. Hagi ana'ma hute'za Anumzamo'ma kema hu'nea za hu'za eme atru huvagarete'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.
